A rebellious teen threatened with expulsion from school is offered an alternative: an experimental program in which she would counsel troubled children. Initially rebelling from the concept, she finds that her involvement lets her confront her own angers and eventually her family including a loving grandmother. With the help of a new friend, she eventually turns away from her trouble-making boyfriend and makes a new life.
Directed by John Caire, Nowhere to Go leans on a strong ensemble — Tricia Vessey, John Shea, Marianne Jean-Baptiste — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about screen titles of 1998.
